I have been blogging a lot about cooking lately, huh!? Well, I guess when you spend the majority of your day somewhere it is bound to be on the forefront of your mind ,is it not? Plus, in the winter I love baking because it not only heats the house, but warms our bellies. But, really, I do things outside my little kitchen quite often. Like just last week, I was at one moment researching bagel recipes and the next moment responding to a call from my hubby that our cow was in the neighbors yard a little down the road. So, I took the five year old boy with me to go get Bella and left the six year old to keep everyone happy for the few moments I would be gone. When I returned I then I Had to go and locate two little girls that had gone AWOL in search of me. Praise the Lord ! They found their way to the friendly neighbors backyard! Then. the other day I was having a conversation with my son and he asked if we were going to adopt a baby someday. I told him I would not be surprised if the Lord had that for us in the future. To that he replies " Oh good, we should get one for me, one for Haven and one for Jubilee...that way we can each have our own baby! " Can you tell they love their baby brother and are looking forward to the next. The more babies the merrier! Well, I guess we will have to wait and see what the Lord has for us. And, as far as school goes (this is homeschoolblogger, after all), I think we are truckin right along. We are reading through John, a chapter a day. Jubilee's reading out-loud skills are improving daily. We successfully memorized Psalm 1 and now we are moving on to 1 John 5. We have a blast belting out tunes from the hymnal (I am not sure it would be listener friendly, but we sure enjoy it). Jubilee is moving right along in her Miquon math book and I am growing to like it more daily as I catch on to what they are going for. She does a lot of writing and copy-work on her own...so I don't really assign that. Jack is learning to write his name and fine tuning his counting skills. The younger ones enjoy soaking up all the info they can. We keep reading good books and enjoying time together! I figure, at this point, the simpler I keep things the better. Oh! and the most exciting news ever! I am going to have a camera again! Life is good! Well, I want to share more...but this post is already extremely boring and long. So, I will stop your suffering. But, soon I want to share more about bulk shopping and keeping the grocery bill low, while not sacrificing balanced meals and nutrition. I know, more kitchen stuff, what can I say? |
